    At 11:00 pm? What were they doing there at that time?
    His plan was to sever his arm? Some of them, at the slightest disagreement will get angry and pick up a weapon to injure or murder the other.
    This person has a wicked heart; the nerve to do something like that. I wonder if he is sane. He should be examined by a psychiatrist. If it is proven he is sane, he should be charged and sentenced to prison for some time.
    Some types as these are beyond rehabilitation. He may be an ignorant person and one to fear being in his company.

    the scamp probably would not use the cutlass to weed a piece of ground that is if he knows but somebody’s arm is no problem.
